- DinoAI: an agent run no longer ends as Completed on a reply that only promises work, such as βIβll produce the list nextβ. When a turn ends on a promise without calling a tool, the agent is sent back once to do the work, or to say plainly that itβs finished, blocked, or waiting on you.
- DinoAI: diagrams in DinoAIβs Slack replies render as images again, instead of arriving as raw Mermaid code.
- Bolt: Turbo CI and other deferred runs start faster. They now fetch the deferred scheduleβs
sources.jsononly when a command selects onsource_statusor runsdbt retry. - Bolt: Retry from failure keeps the failed commandβs
--warn-errorand path flags (--profiles-dir,--project-dir,--target-path,--log-path, and--defer-state) on thedbt retryit runs, so a retrieddbt build --warn-errorstill treats warnings as errors. See Retrying a run. - Bolt: on dbtβ’ 2.0, runs that include
dbt source freshnessopen in Run details again, and their post-run steps run again, including self-healing and alerts to incident.io, PagerDuty, Datadog, and New Relic. dbtβ’ 2.0 reports freshness statuses capitalized, which Paradime didnβt recognize. Sources that warn are also no longer shown as healthy in the Catalog and the Discovery API. - Catalog: the Catalog shows its build status again. A chip on the Catalog home, search results, and asset pages reads Ready, Building, Build failed, or Never built, and opens a breakdown by source with any error and whether it needs a fix from you. In the Code IDE, the catalog panel shows when your development catalog was last updated, and says why it has no docs for a file, such as a model that isnβt in the catalog yet. See Find & Explore.
- Code IDE: a variable you put in front of a dbtβ’ command in the terminal now reaches dbtβ’, so
PARADIME_STATE_DISABLED=1 dbt buildturns Paradime State off for that one command. Values set in Settings > Environment Variables still take precedence. If a terminal was already open, open a new one to pick up the change.
Other improvements
Fixes in v6.17.0: agents finish what they promise, Slack diagrams render, Turbo CI starts sooner, retries keep βwarn-error, and Catalog build status is back.
